No, you only should be using Wayland if you need some of it's features. If you don't need mixed refresh rate/mixed scaling you're fine using X.

    X is abandonware and full of security issues probably time to switch to maintained aoftware

    Sure, activity in the repo and new versions don't prove the project isn't abandoned... Maybe you just don't know what abandonwere means?

    No one stops you from moving to Wayland. It has it's uses. But the FUD you're spreading is stupid and boring. X is fine, it's exactly what a lot of people need and it doesn't make sense to move their DEs to Wayland only because it's 'new'. The fact that it took Wayland 10 years to reach any sort of usability shows just how little does it offer to an average user.

    X' architecture is insecure. There's no isolation between windows, and each process can spy on your input. That's just one example.
    Wayland is necessary.
